CALENDAR INVITE TO ROCP VIRTUAL EVENT

Spearheaded in the USA by Interabang's Adult Book Buyer Lori Feathers, the aim of the prize is to support small presses for their ongoing commitment to work of high literary merit. Most often it is the small publishers who take the largest creative and financial risks and yet, in a purely financial sense, they are least able to do so.

The prize fund for the 2022 awards is $35,000, of which $20,000 will be distributed equally among the ten presses on the longlist. The remaining $15,000 will be split equally among the five titles on shortlist: 50% to the press, 50% to the author, or where applicable 1/3 each to the press, author and translator. The winner gets bragging rights.

"The quality of submissions for this, our inaugural year, was extraordinary. It says much about the novelty and creative range of small press literary fiction that we can highlight these superb, longlisted titles.

- Prize Director and Co-owner, Interabang Books, Lori Feathers
